Lead Front-End Developer
May 2020 - Present
- Managed a team of ~6 developers which included maintaining the tech stack, assigning tasks, running architecture/design meetings, reviewing commits and employee training.
- Main focus was on our flagship project, Neontra, a personal finance tool capable of tracking any aspect of your financial life.
- Developed a custom XML⇔JS translation layer which significantly simplified how backend and frontend communicate.
- Created an ESLint config which automatically formatted code based on our guidelines and highlighted certain errors resulting in code review time being cut down in half.
- Developed a multi-session login process which allowed admin users to log into their client’s accounts without data bleedover, eliminating the need for a backend solution.
- Wrote scripts to perform continuous deployment to development and live environments which added automatic backups and versioning, improved deployment time and significantly reduced user error.
- Introduced Expo and Typescript to our React Native projects which allowed instant app availability for testing and improved developer experience.
- Wrote extensive tutorials for setting up a full development environment (Web and Mobile) for Ubuntu/Fedora, MacOS and Windows 10/11 (with WSL).
Software Engineer (part time)
Feb 2020 - Apr 2020
- Worked part-time during a full semester at school.
- Reviewed code and contributed solutions to problems faced by the team.
- Mostly focused on improving legacy code.
Software Engineer Intern (16 months)
May 2018 - August 2019
- Part of University of Toronto PEY (Professional Education Year) Program.
- Started off by fixing visual bugs and ended with delivering a complete front-end tech stack overhaul:
■ Bower ➜ NPM
■ AngularJS ➜ React
■ Native iOS/Android ➜ React Native
-
Pitched, prototyped and delivered a multi-platform, multi-project monorepo, which:
■ condensed multiple repos into one
■ significantly increased code reusability
■ significantly decreased project startup time
■ unified frontend-backend communication layer
■ reduced tech debt and eliminated depreciated tools
